Apache ZooKeeper is an open-source distributed coordination service originally developed at Yahoo! and now maintained by the Apache Software Foundation. It provides primitives like configuration management, naming, distributed locks, and leader election that let clustered applications (such as Kafka, Hadoop, and HBase) stay synchronized. Backend and distributed-systems engineers rely on it to keep multi-node services consistent and fault-tolerant.
